Talk:King of Cadonia

Who wrote the music?
The IBDB credits Jerome Kern as the first of two composers listed for this work, in place of Frederick Rosse, listed second in this article. Any infomration as to whether Kern was actuially involved? OR did he do a major re-write of the music for the New York production? Pzavon 01:23, 21 October 2006 (UTC)


 * Noda says that the London production had lyrics by Adrian Ross and Jerome Kern, and that for the Broadway production additional songs were added by M.E. Rourke and Jerome Kern (but it doesn't say whether Kern did just lyrics). Colin Johnson says that Nos. 16, 20 & 23 were composed by Frederick Rosse, but I don't know if that was for London or just NY, and he does NOT indicate that Kern supplied any of the lyrics.  So, in short, the sources online disagree.  My experience is that the IBDB database is VERY inaccurate in describing who did what in these early musicals.  -- Ssilvers 02:12, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
